Not being funny, but there are literally tens of thousands of products available on eBay and various other outlets, do we need to start a thread for each one? Obviously if someone was asking about these it’s useful, but a contextless link just clogs the forum.

I agree that relevant links are helpful. Links to random items aren't IMO, why that item? What makes it relevant? Don't say "it's for a model railway". This isn't a webshop encyclopedia (nor should it try to be), it's a forum. But we've had a discussion about it, and maybe someone will need them and be glad of your link.

I kind of see the point... A post with a link and nothing else to put it in context (especially when the destination address is masked with tinyURL so you can't assess it before you click) could very easily be somewhere nasty or a phishing scam.

A couple of lines describing the context of posting the link, gives a degree of assurance of good intent in posting the link...
